RAPIDLY APPROACHING.

Daily the signs of ian approaching
boom for Salt Lake are increasing.
Everywhere throughout the West
shrewd men are turning their eyes in
this direction, for they see here indlca-
tons of one of those periods of rapid
growth and development known as
booms. Furthermore they are placing
great store on the promised activity
because it will present features not
often found in such affairs Those who
are in the least degree acquainted with
this city, who understand the COM
munity, and are familiar with the
situation and with our resources,
our ways and our disposition,
rsalize that our boom will be unlike
any other. There can be nothing SEN
sational about it: it will not be mush-
Toomy and feeting; its development
will not be matter of one day and its
death an occurrence of the next day !;
its growth will be steady and continu-
Gus, and its life of long duration. I'm
like other western cities which have in
dulged in booms, Salt Lake possesses
solid foundation upon which to build.
Her location Is the very best within al
area of a thousand miles; her climate is
unsurpassed on the continent; the
scenic and other attractions ia and
adjacent to her, are numerous and al
most without rivals, such is their &C
knoWled superiority; the opportunities
for profitable investment of capital are
many and inviting, and above all, her
people are sturdy, honest, thrifty. in
dustrious and conservative, the great
majority of them belonging to that
class which is recognized everywhere as
containing the best citizens in COM
munity. With such conditions and
with such people, our boom cannot
be made hashy affair, doomed at birth
to an early death and certain to
be followed by regret. Intelligent
men and wise investors see these things
and are growing anxious to assert
themselves here where there will be
little or none of the element OF land
or other craze. Go where you will, you
will hear the solid men of the place talk
of the impending boom for Salt Lake,
and they will predict how substantial
an affair it promises to be. Those who
have been watching Utah from distant
or near points of observation are also
noting and commenting on the signs
of the coming good time as seen
in the better social feeling that
has developed within the past
eight months; in the partially
successful attempt to live down and
smother the religious and social hates
and animosities which have so long dis.
turbed the community and retarded the
city's growth and improvement; in the
harmonious working together Tor nut
ual advantage and benefit of hitherto
opposing factions, and in the apparent
determination by the substantial, bona
fde residents to sit down on the adVen-
turers and agitators who have exercised
so great an influence for evil against the
city and Territory.
All signs foretelI an early and glorious
boom for Salt Lake.

THE DRAMA.
Frank Mayo as ssValdemar NOr-
deCk.,,

ucCAs"
A splendid house greeted Frank
Mayo and his company at the initial
performance last night. Mr.. Mayo
has peculiar claims upon the Califor-
mia public. He first entered the
theatrical profession in this State
when quite youth, and by faithful
work and hard study received from
the critics of California the endorse
ment which gave him the prestige of
an accomplished and promising actor.
He returns now after an absence of
five years having established his rep
utation as " bright, particular star"
in all the populous centres of the East.
He selected from his reportory the
drama of Nordeck for the opening per-
formance last evening, assuming the
role of "Waldemar Nordeck. The
piece is founded upon the peculiar po-
litical and social state of affairs that
existed on the German frontier OF Po-
land one hundred years ago, in which
patriotism and revenge are illustrated
in a very striking and thrilling sue
ession of highly dramatic incidents.
The company is one of very superior
merit, and the cast of Nordeck is the
strongest, in every respect, we have
yet seen in Los Angeles. MIR. Mayo
has greatly improved since we last
saw him. He has got rid of several
mannerisms which were among his
early drawbacks, and has cured the
defect in ranting, both in speech and
gesture, to which he used to gi 70 way
in his salad theatrical days. He has
polished his rough edges and toned
down his exuberance, and has devel-
oped into a quiet, natural and
impressive actor. His rendition
of Waldemar" was, in many
respects, one of great power, evoking
spontaneous encomiums from a most
critical audience. Miss Alice Fischer,
as Princess Zuiliski," gave a finished
picture of the proud, ambitious and
calleus woman, one who could even
sacrifice the natural affections of a
mother to her deep-seated hate and
practical designs. Miss Helen Rand,
as Wanda" a coquette, finally sub
dued by the genuine sentiments OF
love, played her difficult role with
great acceptance; and Miss Fanny
Graham was happy in some of the
finer touches of comedy which fell to
her part. Mr.. J. II. Taylor gave
fine impersonation OF the bluff,
hearty, true friend in the char
acter of "Witold," the uncle and
guardian of the wayward "Walde-
mar" He divided the honors with
Mr.. Mayo by his whoIe-souled, honest
and effective acting. Indeed, the
entire company won golden opinions
from the audience, and presented a
line OF uniformly superior acting, rare
ly seen on the stage nowadays. We
take pleasure in commencing Frank
Mayo and his troupe to the generous
support of our people.

melo-dramatic version of the episode

with the dentist and told him that un-
less in three days he did what was
right, he would fix him. On the
night of Harlan's death Oliver hired
buggy in the same livery stable
where Hattie and the dentist got their
team and preceded them to Compton.
When they got to the barn Oliver was
already in the neighborhood and
tracking Harlan. The girl and her
lover entered the barn, and after
she had entreated him once more
to marry her he finally ad-
mitted that he was a married
man. Hattie was already aware of
the fact and upbraided her unfaithful
lover for his perfidy. This excited
him and he pulled out the pistol,
which he had had so much trouble in
borrowing, saving, "Well, then, l will
kill myself" Just then Oliver, who
was listening outside came in and
said, "No, YOU will not kill yourself,
but l will kill you" Then he pre-
scented his revolver to the head of
Harlan and instantly blew out his
brains.
The readers of the HERALD will re-
member that one of the most aston
ishing things in connection with the
murder was that the body of Harlan
was found saturated with coal oil.
This coal oil was poured upon the
dead man by Oliver, who carried a
pint bottle of kerosene upon his per-
son, as remedy for Il skin disease
with which he was afflicted. After the
murder and the burning OF the barn,
Oliver and his cousin, Hattie, return
ed together in the same buggy and
were seen to alight infront of her room
on Fort street. Oliver remained
twenty-four hours in town after the
killing and being short of money told
Il friend the fix he was in. AT the
same time he borrowed from him
enough money to get away.
Late last night Miss Minnie Wool
steen was telephoned to at the County
Jail and asked if she knew any one by
the name of Oliver, but she denied
having any acquainceship with any
such person.
These facts, are not given as
being the truth, but they have been
received on good authority and bear
such a stamp of veracity that they
may really open the way to the dis
covery of one of the most astonishing
mysteries that were unraveled in this
county.

AZUSA WATER.
Arrest of the Competitors for it's
POssessiOn.

Arrest of the Competitors for it's
Possession.
The Azusa water trouble still con-
tinues to cause considerable anxiety
and there are fears of further encount-
ers between the Lucas detective force
and the residents of Azusa and Duarte.
Severa. personal encounters took place
Sunday, but there was no bloodshed
and peace is ensured until the next at
tempt to divert the water into the
Covina or cement ditch before the
matter is settled in court. The water
was turned into the Covina tunnel on
Saturday night by the detectives. The
Azusa people went in force to the
caflon, filled in the mouth OF the tun-
mel and drove the detectives away.
Marsh, leader of the detectives, sent
three men to see how matters were
progressing in the canon and they
were roughly handled, and had it not
been for the counsel of several of the
Azusa men they would have Jared
badly. They were allowed to return
to their frieds. Yesterday the whole
party came down to Azusa to Justice
Shelton on a charge of malicious mis-
chief. They asked for a change OF
venue on the ground that they would
not be able to get an impartial trial in
Azusa. The request was granted and
the case was referred to Justice Ta-
ney's court of this city.

Grand Larceny.

Joe Smith and Mike Griffin, alias
"Frisco Mike" were arrested yester-
day noon by Chief Darcy and Officers
Alvord and Moore, on Upper Main
street. and charged with grand lar
ceny. As far as could be learned,
these men are charged with stealing
some diamonds in San Bernardino.
True to the tactics inaugurated by
Mr.. Darcy when he took charge of the
police Office, all information was
withheld from the newspaper re-
porters. The men got one OF. their
friends to swear out writ of habeas
corpus, on the ground that they are
illegally detained in custody. The
matter will be heard this morning, at
II o'clock, by Judge Gardiner, OF De-
partment Four.

Committee.
Col. Otis was called and asked Capt.
Blanding if any thing more than the
site was required by the Board: The
Captain replied that the United
States had great deal of money and
did not ask anything of anybody.
There were many bidders and
this city would be fortunate
if it secured the Home.
The special desiderati prescribed
by Congress in selecting site are eli
mate and accessibility, both of which
are to be found in this city. The
Colonel thought that the main point
to be made by the city was to make
an offer which would eclipse all other
offers by other cities. He moved that
q general invitation be extended to all
parties desiring to offer sites, to make
the offer through the Board of Trade,
which would forward them to the
managers.
Colonel Briefly though that the Of
fers should not be confined to the
Board of Trade but the City Council,
Board of Supervisors and special
committee be appointed to receive
offers.
Capt. Blanding stated that the
meeting should make up its mind, as
the Board of Managers would arrive
here about the 18th of November and
would not want to hear that Los An
geles had a fine climate and was ac-
cessible by rail, but would want to see
the 32O acres which it was stated
would be offered. 1t would be neces-
sary to insure plenty of good water,
but the Board of Managers would not
hesitate to pipe water distance of
seven or eight miles. After some fur
ther discussion the resolution was
unanimously adopted.
Mr.. Germain stated that no ar
rangements had been made for future
meetings, and that very liberal offer
had been made. A meeting could be
called at any time.
Captain Blanding stated that he
would do just what the meeting
wished, as he was there for that pur-
pose, and would look at everything
there was to be seen. The Board Of
Managers will arrive in a special car,
and will probably be accompanied by
their wives.
Mr.. German stated that an offer
had been made by the Centinela
ranch of 300 acres of land.
The meeting then adjourned sine die.
